A collection of poetry inspired by the Biblical text, and following the Biblical order, from Genesis and the Pentateuch, moving through the histories, the wisdom books, the prophets, the gospels, the letters, to the Book of Revelation. The poems featured are from all periods of English literature (the Old English and Middle English in translation or with glossaries). Two genres would be represented: the poetic paraphrase, and poetry that responds to the spirit of the biblical text, devotionally, meditatively, or even expositionally.
